I still have this problem with mercurial tree from today.
Is there any trick? I simply do a make / make install in v4l-dvb tree
I checked the Makefiles. The only place I found the use of strip was in
v4l/Makefile:
#################################################
# Old instalation rule
old-install:: rminstall
@echo -e "\nInstalling new V4L modules at $(DEST)..."
@strip --strip-debug $(inst-m)
-install -d $(DEST)
-install -m 644 -c $(inst-m) $(DEST)
/sbin/depmod -a ${KERNELRELEASE}
#################################################
But why is it called "old"?
How does the script v4l/scripts/make_makefile.pl work?
